Did you read the PDF Submission Spec at https://s3.amazonaws.com/csp-wg-addi...rTOIV7mE8fo%3D

For books with bleed:

If you want your images to bleed to the edges of your book, ensure that they extend at least 0.125" beyond the final trim size from the top, bottom, and outer edges and submit your PDF 0.25" higher and 0.125" wider than your selected trim size to accommodate the full bleed area.

• For example, if your selected trim size is 8.5" x 11", you will set the page size to 8.625" wide by 11.25" high.
Keep in mind all live elements must be at least 0.25" away from the trim lines, so if your file is formatted to be full bleed all live elements should be 0.375" a way from the edge of the page.

The book will be cut to your final Trim Size, but the bleed ensures your images will still extend to the edges of the page.
